A workshop, "New Perspectives on Pathobiology of Coral Reef Organisms,"
will be presented at the 8th International Coral Reef Symposium, 24-29 June
1996 in Panama City, Panama. This one-day workshop will be held mid-week
during the symposium and will provide a forum for education and
communication in the field of pathobiology as it relates to the study of
diseases in algae, invertebrates, and vertebrates of tropical marine
ecosystems. The workshop will consist of short presentations on diseases
and research topics, hands-on discussion/demonstration sessions of methods
and techniques in histopathology, microbiology, and parasitology, and a
discussion on physical/chemical factors causing or mediating diseases in
these organisms.
Participants are encouraged to provide short seminars on topics in their
area(s) of expertise, as well as to contribute examples of their own
disease research "problems" for consultation. Participants are also
encouraged to submit papers on diseases of tropical marine organisms for
presentation during a contributed paper session at the symposium, which
will be published in the symposium proceedings.
